[Please choose your main profession and sub-profession...]
[The choice of profession will determine the development of your skills, please choose carefully...]
[Available sub-professions: Totem Druid, Beast King Druid, Calamity Druid, Ocean Druid, Swamp Druid, Desert Druid, Steel Druid, Jungle Druid, Mountain Druid, Sky Druid...]
"This selection is exactly the same as when I played in my previous life, players can choose both a main profession and a sub-profession within one profession template..."
The Druid sub-profession has the most options, known as the all-round profession, ranked thirteenth in strength among twelve professions!
"Main profession, Beast King Druid!"
"Sub-profession, Jungle Druid!"
After pondering for a while, Qi Ping made his choice.
The Beast King Druid can have more than one animal companion, and can share one talent from the animal companion.
His own talent isnāt high, choosing Beast King Druid can somewhat compensate for this flaw by sharing the talent of animal companions.
This is something other sub-professions find hard to achieve.
The Jungle Druid is most suitable for planting spiritual medicine in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, the most representative skill is Plant Growth, which can accelerate the growth of spiritual medicine.
The value of this function is incredibly high in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
In cultivation, wealth is considered the top priority, and to some extent, spiritual medicine represents wealth.

"Itās no different from when I played in my previous life!"
Seeing the familiar options, Qi Ping couldnāt conceal his joy.
This modified version of the starting skills is simply perfect! It offers much higher playability compared to the normal version.
"Choose Animal Communication, Beast Friend, Beast Kingās Blessing!"
The purpose of these skills doesnāt need much explanation.
As for why Beast Mastery was temporarily abandoned, there are two reasons:
First, there is a possibility of failure in compelling, especially considering that animals in the Immortal Cultivation Realm generally have higher intelligence, unless the skill level can be upgraded to a considerably high level, which could ensure success.
Secondly, Qi Ping doesnāt have many animals around him to control, while the other three skills can immediately help Qi Ping find powerful animal companions.
"Choose Plant Growth!"
This skill is the main reason Qi Ping chose Jungle Druid, and itās also the core skill in the farming stream.
A Druid without Plant Growth doesnāt deserve to be called a Druid!
Solely relying on the Plant Growth skill, one wouldnāt starve in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, although the specific strength remains to be tested.

As the professional panel formed, a green light suddenly flashed through Qi Pingās body.
After the flash, Qi Ping felt like he was a completely different person!
In his perception, the world presented a lot more familiar and friendly wood spirit qi compared to before, the difference being at least tenfold compared to his lower-grade wood spirit root affinity.
Besides his perception of spirit qi, the biggest change was the transformation he felt towards the box of little black bees in front of him.
As a Beast King Druid, having the Beast Friend skill made the little black bees extremely friendly towards him, buzzing curiously around and expressing their friendliness.
"Awakening succeeded!"
Sensing the different feeling in his body and the Druid magic knowledge in his mind, Qi Ping couldnāt be more delighted!
"Finally, Iām not just a first-layer Qi Refining Cultivator with low talent and comprehension!"
At last, he had hope in the Immortal Cultivation Realm!
"Now I just need to contract a powerful animal companion, and my safety will be somewhat assured."
"Then I can earn money through farming skills, raise my animal companions, and accumulate upgrade experience..."
"But the most urgent matter now is to figure out the reason behind the little black beeās restlessness..."
Spring and summer are the highest honey-yielding seasons, and in these two seasons, I could sell a nice amount of spirit stones!
Looking at the little black bees buzzing around, Qi Ping used the knowledge in his mind to touch some mysterious energy with his intention...
In the next moment, Qi Pingās world changed.
The dense buzzing sound transformed into meaningful language in Qi Pingās mind.
"Buzz buzz...(large bee large bee...)"
"Buzz buzz...(earth cavity large bee...)"
"Buzz buzz...(stealing honey stealing honey...)"
"Buzz buzz...(golden large bee, fierce...dangerous...)"
"Buzz buzz...(stealing our nectar...we need to move)"
...
Wow!
Thousands of little black bees buzzing together almost overwhelmed Qi Ping!
He took a while to adjust.
"Earth cavity large bee? Golden? Stealing nectar?"
"Could it be..."
Based on the keywords mentioned by the little black bees, a suspicion arose in Qi Pingās mind... Earth Cavity Golden Marrow Bee!
The only answer Qi Ping could think of matching these conditions was Earth Cavity Golden Marrow Bee!
"If the reason for the bee swarm frenzy is indeed Earth Cavity Golden Marrow Bee, then it truly is a blessing in disguise!"
The Earth Cavity Golden Marrow Bee is a quite rare bee species with higher combat power than the Golden Striped Hornet, and itās excellent at making honey, with honey value at least ten times higher than that of the little black bees.
However, breeding this kind of Golden Marrow Bee is quite challenging, making it very rare and much less common compared to little black bees.
Qi Ping originally planned to give the first animal companion slot to the Golden Striped Hornet because itās the highest combat power animal he could currently obtain.
"But if the little black bees were truly referring to the Golden Marrow Bee, it would be at least ten times better than the Golden Striped Hornet as my first animal companion!"
The combat power of the Golden Marrow Bee not only surpasses the Golden Striped Hornet but its honey-making ability is also far superior to both the little black bees and the Golden Striped Hornet!
